Not very likely, considering the sweetness and kindness the present
administration has shown Microsoft,
federal court rulings notwithstanding.
By the time military types get so much chrome on their epaulets they
become more political than strategic.
But there are occasional exceptions. Several years ago the USMC
Commandant announced that the Corps would
provide full military rites for army retirees, when the Army Secretary
announced that the army couldn't
spare the people for honor guards at military funerals.
